Hope there will be tracks to sample - wasn't too keen on their more techno-sounding direction.

Dear Spammer ov the Gods

We tried a few years back and were going to even bring Specimen. We wanted LOTS of $$$$ for a single show. Specimen had their own price too. We were surprised when not more than a handful of promoters got back to us. Really thought they were ALL made of money and the economy over there is top notch right now so...

Forever yours

Mr. Fiend

Seriously, they had contacted Darque Productions regarding a show about a year/year and a half ago. Their performance fee was way up there (to me personally, they are worth it) but for a single performance it was just outrageous. That same money could be spent on several performances from other acts or even something like another Motorpop. Many promoters passed on booking that tour including my buddies in L.A. who have a long history of booking bands and usually cover there expenses with no problems. Even they thought ASF had gone insane with their asking price. Then Specimen wasn't able to get the proper working papers in time to tour...

I'm sure at some point they will return to the states and hopefully their price is reduced from the last attempt. Would love to work with them in bringing them to Detroit. Phenomenal band live. The only band I've ever seen play three hours... and then come back to do a lengthy encore!

They were supposed to 2 years ago but (if I remember) there were problems with Visas...?

Correct. They were supposed to tour with Specimen - "The Batcave Reunited" tour - in 2008. Immigration (read: no working papers),

transportation & other logistic (read: sporadic promoters with enough cash to book them) & legal issues forced the cancellation of the tour.

Sex Gang Children was also to be included on several dates of that tour...

Ah, Sex Gang Children - if only...

Currently, there is no way Andi is gonna get back into the States; lot of issues there.

BTW...is it just me or is it funny/sad that there is more posts in a thread about "Sound Garden" getting back together than Alien Sex Fiend returning to the light?

Im digging it...would you ever play it at CC?

[Joey Deadcat]

Like what I've heard and, yes, would it be accepted by the kids on the dancefloor there?

[DJ Nihil]

There's a couple that sound club worthy. I'd give it a whirl at CC...

I hope they'd warm up to this stuff. it's cooler than some of the music they request...

[Joey Deadcat]

Alien Sex Fiend, folks, Alien Sex Fiend...

[Joey Deadcat]

I hope they'd warm up to this stuff. it's cooler than some of the music they request...

Let's hope so - and maybe they might even ask who it is...

[DJ Nocker]

Let's hope so - and maybe they might even ask who it is...

Or they will bitch about it and request more MSI...

[Joey Deadcat]

They do that "I walk the line between good and evil..." song you hear on the CC dancefloor towards the end of the night, kids.

I haven't seen them since 1993 in Los Angeles. Great times! Too bad, that would have been an awesome show. At least they're putting out new music.
